Dyer

and Snerman, and his former opinions are considerably modified, and he is not satisfied now that Sherman went there, or acted while there, in the interest of the defense. With regard to Bell, the witness said that he wrote to Dyer that he must be careful not to trust Bell that he was really in the employ or the defense. Bell called on the witness about the middle of December last, with a letter from Dyer Witness grew suspicious of Bell, and hence the letter to Dyer. He believed

Bell

was in the service of Babcock, and did not want to employ him. He believed Bell to be a spy on Dyer, and po warned Dyer iabout the 10th or 12th of February Bell called at the witness office and repeated the story that he had been io the employ of the defence and wanted to be employed by the prosecution, lie spoke of the express packages to Bradley and the dispatches sent by Babcock signed D.

Itabcock and Bell. __

Washington, April 10.—The com- subject a department to-day, Bluford Wilson, solicitor of the treasury ^testified that he first met Bell in the fall of 1874, when he was an applicant for the position of chief of the secret service bureau of the treasury department. He did not appoint Bell because of information he had that shook his confidence in him. Bell was never iu the employ of the treasury departmentor the secret division. He was employed in the revenue 'oureau to get the Hoge papers. Hoge was not prosecuted because he left the country Witness met Bell about the tenth or twelfth of February. Bell* came to his house and told him substantially the same story he told the committee. Bell had never been employed "on the detective force of the treasury •proper, because the witness had learned from detectives of his associations with General Babcock, Mr. Lucky and Mr. Bradiey, and believed he was employed by the defense to look into the hands of the prosecution. The witness was questioned as to whether Mr. Sherman was sent •out. from New York to St. Louis, and went there in the interest of the dei feuse. He replied that from the information he got from Dyer and others that he believed that Sherman was using the opportunity he had in the interest of the defense, but there since he hid talked with

'ft'e witneas was

buite impressed With his story, though he was cautious in trusting him. The witness telegraphed to Dver that Bell bad told a remarkaSI story, Ac. To this, Dyer answered ''If you think Bell told the t?u?h send him here. When were the dispatches and express packages sent?" Wilson telegraphed to DyVr- "Bell has secretary Chandler commission in his pocket.'' Dyer afterwards telegraphed to Wilson:

VVe dare not trust the fellow of whom vou sp^ke." Witness told ihe President the substance of Bell's atory. Bell once came ts the withouse and told a very remarkable story about Avery. He said that Avery had hitn harshly delt with. He had S left to bear the brunt of battle, hfd impoverished himsel., and wa«

thatUie story could not be implicitly gay? The witness told Bell to go to the attorney general wUh Averv Story with regard to Bell8 to Mm touoWng ihe Babcock and Luc^y affair The witness regarded ?t

something worthy of cousieration because of

the

production of

cipher. The fact that~fce*bad a commission under ft Secretary Chandler and because Bell repeated to liun a memoranda which be remembered having sent to Dyer some time p£ vious which caused him to beleive that Bell knew a good deal. L. H. Gregory, former post trader at

Fort Bichardoon, in Texas, testified that Gen. Rice got at least one third of his profits. He had paid to Rice nearly $2,000

profits,

ara

although

Rice never invested a dollar in the business. He paid one hundred dolin the last presidential cam-

paign to the Republican national convention. Joseph Loeb, post trader at Fort Concheo, Texas, testified that he had paid $2,000 to Gen. Rice for getting him that post.

Sclicuck.

Washington, April 10.—The Foreign Relations Comnaittes continued their examination into Schenclts connection with the Emma Mine,

McKeen testified that he would not believe Lyoa under oath, The witness had no knowledge of any attempt being made by Park or Stew art or their agents to induce him any other of the judicary.

Warren Hussey a banker of Salt Lake City was then examined. He purchased a fourth interest in the Emma mine for $50,000 in the year 1870. In the spring of '71 he and the firm of Walker Brothers sold ODe half interest in the mine to Park for $325,000. The witness would not be lieve Lyon under oath.

Silas Williams Superintendent of the mine from August, 1871, to March, 1873, de clared he would not believ Lyon under oath'. All testimony as to Lyon's credibility, to-day, is ject to the committee's final ruling as to its admissability. Adjourned.

Printing Frauds.

Washington, April 10.—The committee on printing further examined Mr. Clapp to-day. The committee do not regard his explanations on various subjects before them as satisfactory. Members of the committee assert that responsible parties, whose names are made public, have proposed to give ample bonds for doing all public printing at $400,000 per annum, less than it is now done for. They also state that reports of Mr. Clapp do not show a correct account of the expense of printing the congressional record, and that it is much greater than he represents it to be.

Ilogue.

Ci"cinnati, April 11.—In an interview with Col. Lewis Weitzsl, rovonue collector, concerning the charges implicating him in the whisky frauds with one Ilogue, of Xenia, Ohio, Col. Weitzel states: I have nothing to say except that so far as I am concerned there is not on grain of truth iu the statement of detective Bell. Up to the time Hogue went to St. Louis, 1 believe ho was an honest man, but he was there made to believe that General Babcock and the whole administration was in the ring, and that while the money was going he might as well have part of the swag. Senator Morton interested himself iu the case, believing he was unjustly treated, but as soon as he found out that Hogue had betrayed his trust, he, with Tom

Young,immediatelydropped

him. District Attorney Bateman denies that he refused to arrest Hogue, or put his case before the grand Jury. The grand jury did not meet until after the election, and that fact sufficiently answered the assertion. He was of the opiuion that Hogue could not bo prosecuted in this district, but in Indiana, whera the body of the crime had been committed. With this yiew he put himself in coiumunicntion with the District Attorney, at Indianapolis, to ascertain what valuo the telegrams mentioned would have.

Wilkinson.

San Francisco, April 11.—Col. A. C. Davis was with Wilkinson to-day. The latter asserts that he is guilty of no crime. As to the approval of the United States gauger's accounts, he said Bittenger was elected to the legislature and he employed Bittenger to do gauging. The bills were approved in Bittenger's name by ord9rs from McDonald and Joyce. He is convinced since learning of Bittenger pleading guilty that the conspiracy to defraud the government extended throughout northern and western Missouri, and that Joyce, McDonald and Bittenger shared in the profits, but maintains t-hat it will be shown in the evidence that distillers and members of the ring were instructed to withhold all knowledge from the Collector. He believes that Joyce and McDonald will be pardoned'as soon aB the Presidential election is over. From a fugitive distiller. whom he met in Melbourne, he learned that Joyce represented to the distillers oi northern Missouri that the assessments on crooked whisky wero levied for party purposes, and remitted to Gen. Babcock in Washington. It was the custom to pay employes $5 stamps for steaming stamps from old barrels ard using them on new ones. He has information that eleven United Ssates Senators signed a petition for Bittenger's pardon, including Harvey and Ingalls, of Kansas, Cockfell, of Mo., Morton, of Ind Spencer, of Ala.. Hitchcock and Paddock, of Neb. He says He has suffered all the agony possible from the consequences of moral cowardice. He had determined before he was arrested to meet the matter. He will not ask bail or return. At the time «f leaving St.

Joseph, owing to the whisky fever, he could not get bail on indictments, which without justice threatened him, but acted suicidally in leaving as he did Wilkinson. He will probably go east Thursday in custody.

Another Defaulting Cashier. Ntw York, April ll.—John Seal one of the tellars of the Security Savings Bank i9 discovered to be a dtp." faul ter of $69,000. TJie bank isftteingr wound up by a receiver aud discoveTy was made through the settlement of depositors accounts for payment of dividend. Seal has been au employee of the bank siuce 1872 and his frauds continued systematically through all thi9. When discrepancies were discovered in the books, but before suspicion of him had arisen he finished up by taking$500 more and absconded with that sura and abont $1,00, belonging to parties not concerned with the bank.

From tlie Indianapolis Sentinel. Mr. J. C. Harrison, a prominent banker of this city, is in possession of a secret the exposure of which will forever olast the prospects of a certain prominent candidate for tbe presidency. It is this: An entry appears in the minute? of the executive committee ot the board of directors of the Uuion Pacific Rawroad Company, of December 16,1871, showing that 864,000 of the company's money found its way into tbe hands of some -person who bad ho right to it. At a meeting of tbe board of diiectors in September, 1872, I\lr.Harrison,wbo has been a member of that board for a number of years through the influence of Senator Mor ton, introduced a resolution calling for a committee to investigate the matter and report who received this large sum of money and all tbe circumstances attending its disbursement. No' sooner had this been dono than Mr. Rollins, the secretary of the board, quietly went to Mr. Harrison and said, you must withdraw that re»olution. An investigation will_ involve Mr. Blaine and defeat his re-election-He got the money. The resolution was withdrawn. These facts are known to Mr. Wilson, of Iowa, who was present at the time the resolution was introduced and withdrawn, as a member of the board of di.ectors. It is proper to say that a lot of worthless Arkansas railroad bonds were deposited as collateral security for this money. Mr. Harrison's testimony before a committee of Congress in connection with the fraud would be both intesesting and startling. By all means lot him be called. The country is entitled to the disclosure. Let no gailty man escape. Nobody will ba more surprised at the appearance of this article than Mr. Harrison.

Yesterday afternoon, as a carpenter was making some improvements on the front doors of J. P. Tutt's establishment, he found in the panels two copies of "The Daily Evening Journal" for September 30th, 1S58, and October 4th, of the same year, placed in there evidently to deaclen sound. The curiosity Ye Gay GAZETBER has for old newspapers was greatly excited.by this occurrence, and as the result of his delvings into the columns of these Id newspapers may not be uninteresting, he herewith presents them: The proprietor and publisher was James B. Edmunds, and the paper was of course, democratic. At the hoad of its columns is found the following ticket, on wtych are many familiar inames:

For President, Steven A. Douglass for Secretary of State, Dan'l McOlure, of Morgan for Auditor of State, Jno. W. Dodd.of

Grant

Boat variety of table apples, Wm. Durham. Bast display .verbenas, Mrs. Joseph Grove r.

Best sow over one year, Henry Fairbanks. Best fat steer or cow, Orman Barbour.

Best heifor over two and under three years, W. B. .rumbhaar. Best gelding, over four years, S. Paddock. Second best, Levi G. Warren,

Best display of phlox, Mrs. R. W. Thompson. There are many other awards and as tbe eye glances down them the young men of to-day can picture pleasing scenes to themselves of their fathers and mothers and the good old anti-war imes of peace and plenty.

It was as trne then, as now, that the leading merchants can always be found in the advertising columns of a respectable journal. It is, therefore, with interest that the business notices of this sheet of the long ago are scanned. Prominently is seen the notice of Edsall, McDougall & Co,, then the lions of the town.

J. H. Moore, superintendent of the graded schools, is ADVERTISING FOR rUPII.S. This may seem Btrange, but in those days a charge of 91 for the first grade $1.50 for ihe second and $2 for tbe third, was made.

Major B. Hudson, then the leading queensware man of tbe place, has an extensive notice, and J. C. Ayer, the "pectoral" man, is not wanting.

In a prominent position is seen the announcement of dissolution^ of "partnership heretofore existing between W. B. Tuell, George Brokaw and J. B. Richardson, doing business under the style and title of Tuell, Brokaw ft Co."

There is a long liat of suspended banks, and also a list of 43 Indiana banks whose notes were then at par.

Judge C. Y. Patterson, then Mayor has something to say, and in an animated paragraph, ye local quillist tells of how there was a fight on Wabash street (Main street) which concluded by the arrest of the offending parties by Marshal Dodson. A statement from the trustees of 8t. Agnes female college, then being built, to the effect that on the following September it was intended to open the school is heralded with the largest head-lines the office could muster. The faculty of the college is given, and the high sounding cognomen of "D'ESTAING S. CONVERT A. M." shines out as ''Professor of ancient languages and literature." Each of the item9, bad the Gazette space to repeat them, would recall scenes to tbe older citizens of the good old days when whi9ky was cheap and a man could bitch his horse to the fence of the White House at Washington without having a cabinet officer steal it, when a show of decency yet remained in politics and honefty in society, when maple molasses wa9 "ceeaper'n dirt" and gate ninges made plenty strong enough to stand tbe strain of swinging all night if necessary.
